Natural Wonders

The emergence thereof, a cycle begins

Of different forms – developing

Exceeding growth of varied rate

Conditions there to germinate

To reproduce they fertilise

New plants to materialise

Protection of the embryo

Seeds produced, equipped to grow

Soil with moisture and daylight

A season with conditions right

Outer case of seed to split

Cells divide at the root tip

Food produced with sunlight caught

A stronger stem for base support

Grass re-growth of no delay

Species grow in the same way 

Creeping plants that climb a wall

Taking shape and growing tall

Carbon dioxide, water involved

The minerals are then dissolved

Tree exposure strong and willed

Healthy cells of which to build

Plants and trees are all around

Natural wonders, calm surround
